IF you cannot find one you could try bearing service, if they do not have the correct size you could get the closest and have it machined to suit, you could use delron or some other plastic material instead of bronze

hey, i have a similar to the topline setup idler arm with bush & grease nipple already installed, $50 and its yours - and if you have no use for your current one if its still usable you can donate it :)

its a brass bush in the steel sleeve, works the same way i guess, just slight alteration on design, unknown origins, let me know :)
